Re: Chronicles of Narnia Audiodrama
Wow, it is just amazing what you'll find on a random Google search! So I guess I'm digging this thread out of the very distant past. I actually don't remember being introduced to "The Chronicles of Narnia" until I was thirteen years old. My oldest niece, about four or five at the time, was living with me and my mom for the better part of a year. She was enrolled in preschool, and some days the kids would go to the library. One day, my niece had checked out "The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe" and my mom read a chapter to her every night before bed. I think she ended up reading the whole series to her, in a British accent, no less! Then for Christmas that year, I got one of the audio dramas done by Focus On The Family, on CD. Then I got the whole series, and that was my official introduction to C.S. Lewis's world of Narnia. To this day, I still think the Focus adaptations are the best. The movies were okay, but I was disappointed that some of the events in "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader" were, for some reason, out of order in the movie. Yes, I'm picky. But hey, these are classic stories!Anyway, I still enjoy the series and still listen to the CD's from time to time. It's way better than an audiobook just narrated by one person. A dry narration is just not the same. Of course, it all depends on who's doing the narrating and how good they are at capturing the story in question. And the same goes for dramatized audio; it depends on how well everything is put together: the acting, the music, the sound effects, etc.
